- Written by over 800 scholars and practitioners drawn from all over the world
- Suitable for practitioners, scholarly researchers, and taught courses in international law

New to this edition - Reflects modern developments with greatly increased coverage of international criminal law, international dispute settlement, trade law and environmental law
- More than 700 new topics not covered in the previous edition
Written by over 800 of the world's leading authorities and edited at the premier research institution for international law, this new edition of the definitive reference work on international law contains 1,618 articles covering the full breadth of the subject. Articles address the history and theory of international law; all subfields such as international criminal law, environmental law, and economic law; leading cases; and significant treaties, organizations, armed conflicts, and geographical issues.
Each article contains cross-references to related articles, and includes a carefully selected bibliography of the most important
writings and primary materials as a guide to further reading.
The Encycopledia can be used by a wide range of readers. Experienced scholars and practitioners will find a wealth of information on areas that they do not already know well as well as in-depth treatments on every aspect of their specialist topics. At the same time articles can be set as readings for students on taught courses.
Every article has been thoroughly peer reviewed and all references have been checked over by the editorial staff giving readers total confidence in the quality and accuracy of the content.
The Encyclopedia will be a primary resource for all students and scholars of international law; counsel, judges and arbitrators involved in
international law cases; and government legal advisers.
A separate volume of indexes, tables, and lists will be available for purchase in late 2012.
Readership: Scholars and students of international law; counsel, judges and arbitrators involved in international law cases; and government legal advisers.

"I was very impressed by MPEPIL. I will certainly refer my students" - Professor Brice Dickson, Professor of International and Comparative Law and Director of the Human Rights Centre, School of Law, University of Belfast "The final component for public international law research is commentary. This component is the hardest to acquire electronically. Westlaw, LexisNexis, and HeinOnline offer databases of law review articles, but serious researchers will also demand treatises-classics of international law, and current monographs. The key building block here is the newly available database, Max Planck Encyclopedia of Public International Law, from Oxford University Press. No PIL collection could attain respectability without this
work." - Mary Rumsey, Foreign, Comparative & International Law Librarian, University of Minnesota Law Library "MPEPIL is already a valuable research and reference tool. A subscription to this database should be considered by all academic law libraries." - Marcia Hoffman, Associate Director and International and Foreign Law Librarian, University of California, Berkeley School of Law "The resource has a wide coverage, including economic, humanitarian, environmental, and other aspects of international law, it will be a valuable addition to the existing databases and could be used across the law school" - University of Liverpool E-Resources News and Trials "Whether you need to understand an international legal
concept or theory or have a specific question about the importance of a particular case or the context of an event, the Encyclopedia of Public International Law online will prove to be an invaluable first stop for your international law research." - Seattle University Law Library Blog "MPEPIL online edition appears as a very useful tool for users wishing to gain general knowledge on a specific topic or as a starting point for researching the doctrine and case law on a specific issue" - Florian Dupuy, ASA Bulletin "It is a fantastic resource" - Jan Glazewski, Professor in the Institute of Marine & Environmental Law, University of Cape Town "This monumental resource will be useful for scholarly researchers and
practitioners in the area of public and international law. Academic libraries and corporate law libraries should consider adding it to their digital collections" - Shannon Graff Hysell, American Reference Books Annual
